Annual starting salaries for college graduates with degrees in business administration are generally expected to be between $10,000 and $50,000. Assume that a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean annual starting salary is desired. Determine the planning value for the population standard deviation.

1. Determine how large a sample should be taken if the desired margin of error is:
a. $500
b. $200
c. $100

2. Would you recommend trying to obtain the $100 margin of error? Explain

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1) the planning value for the population standard deviation is 10,000

2)

a) Margin of error E = 500, n = 1536.64 ≈ 1537

b) Margin of error E = 200, n = 9604

c) Margin of error E = 100, n = 38416

3)

As we can see, sample size corresponding to margin of error of $100 is too large and may not be feasible.

Hence, I will not recommend trying to obtain the $100 margin of error in the present case.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

1) Planning Value for the population standard deviation will be;

⇒ ( 50,000 - 10,000 ) / 4

= 40,000 / 4

σ = 10,000

Hence, the planning value for the population standard deviation is 10,000

2) how large a sample should be taken if the desired margin of error is;

we know that, n = [ ([tex]z_{\alpha /2[/tex] × σ ) / E ]²

given that confidence level = 95%, so [tex]z_{\alpha /2[/tex]  = 1.96

Now,

a) Margin of error E = 500

n = [ ([tex]z_{\alpha /2[/tex] × σ ) / E ]²

n = [ ( 1.96 × 10000 ) / 500 ]²

n = [ 19600 / 500 ]²

n = 1536.64 ≈ 1537

b) Margin of error E = 200

n = [ ([tex]z_{\alpha /2[/tex] × σ ) / E ]²

n = [ ( 1.96 × 10000 ) / 200 ]²

n = [ 19600 / 200 ]²

n = 9604

c)  Margin of error E = 100

n = [ ([tex]z_{\alpha /2[/tex] × σ ) / E ]²

n = [ ( 1.96 × 10000 ) / 100 ]²

n = [ 19600 / 100 ]²

n = 38416

3) Would you recommend trying to obtain the $100 margin of error?

As we can see, sample size corresponding to margin of error of $100 is too large and may not be feasible.

Hence, I will not recommend trying to obtain the $100 margin of error in the present case.

A triangle has side lengths of 24 centimeters and 35. The third side has a length of x centimeters. Complete the inequality to show all the possible values of x.

*2 answers*

Answers

Answer: [tex]11<x<59[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The side of the triangle are [tex]24\ \text{and }35[/tex]

Suppose the third side is [tex]x[/tex]

Also, the sum of the two sides of the triangle is always greater than the third

[tex]\therefore x<24+35\\\Rightarrow x<59\quad \ldots(i)[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]\Rightarrow x+35>24\\\Rightarrow x>-11[/tex]

Also,

[tex]\Rightarrow x+24>35\\\Rightarrow x>11\quad \ldots(ii)[/tex]

From (i) and (ii) we get

[tex]\Rightarrow 11<x<59[/tex]

Calculus chapter7 (Transcendental Functions)

Answers

Answer:

1) [tex]\int\limits^{16}_{2} {\frac{dx}{2\cdot x \cdot \sqrt{\ln x}} } \approx 1.665[/tex]

2) [tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{4\cdot x^{2}+7\cdot x +3}}[/tex]

3) [tex]\int\limits^{2\sqrt{3}}_{0} {\frac{dx}{\sqrt{4 + x^{2}}} } \approx 1.317[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1) [tex]\int\limits^{16}_{2} {\frac{dx}{2\cdot x \cdot \sqrt{\ln x}} }[/tex]

This integral can be solved easily by using algebraic substitutions:

[tex]u = \ln x[/tex], [tex]du = \frac{dx}{x}[/tex]

Then, the integral can rewritten as follows:

[tex]\int {\frac{dx}{2\cdot x\cdot \sqrt{\ln x}} } = \frac{1}{2}\int {\frac{du}{u^{1/2}} } = \frac{1}{2}\int {u^{-1/2}} \, du[/tex]

[tex]\int {u^{-1/2}} \, du = 2\cdot u^{1/2} + C = 2\cdot \sqrt{\ln x} + C[/tex]

Where [tex]C[/tex] is the integration constant.

[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{2} {\frac{dx}{2\cdot x \cdot \sqrt{\ln x}} } = F(16) - F(2)[/tex]

[tex]F(16) - F(2) = 2\cdot (\sqrt{\ln 16}-\sqrt{\ln 2})[/tex]

[tex]F(16) - F(2) \approx 1.665[/tex]

2) Let be [tex]y = \cosh^{-1} (2\cdot \sqrt{x+1})[/tex], then we obtain the expression by the definition of the derivative for the inverse hyperbolic cosine and the chain rule:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = \pm\frac{1}{\sqrt{4\cdot x + 3}}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+1}} \right)[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{(4\cdot x + 3)\cdot (x+1)}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{4\cdot x^{2}+7\cdot x +3}}[/tex]

3) [tex]\int\limits^{2\sqrt{3}}_{0} {\frac{dx}{\sqrt{4 + x^{2}}} }[/tex]

This integral can be solved by the following trigonometric substitutions:

[tex]\frac{2}{\sqrt{4 + x^{2}}} = \cos \theta[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{4+x^{2}}} = \frac{\cos \theta}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{2} = \tan \theta[/tex]

[tex]x = 2\cdot \tan \theta[/tex]

[tex]dx = 2\cdot \sec^{2}\theta \,d \theta[/tex]

[tex]\int {\frac{dx}{\sqrt{4+x^{2}}} } = \int {\left(\frac{\cos \theta}{2} \right)\cdot (2\cdot \sec^{2}\theta)} \, d\theta = \int {\sec \theta} \, d\theta[/tex]

[tex]\int {\sec \theta}\,d\theta = \ln |\sec \theta + \tan \theta| + C[/tex]

[tex]\ln \left|\frac{\sqrt{4+x^{2}}}{2} + \frac{x}{2} \right| + C[/tex]

Where [tex]C[/tex] is the integration constant.

[tex]\int\limits^{2\sqrt{3}}_{0} {\frac{dx}{\sqrt{4 + x^{2}}} } = F(2\sqrt{3}) - F(0)[/tex]

[tex]F(2\sqrt{3}) - F(0) = \ln \left|2+\sqrt{3}\right|-\ln \left|1\right|[/tex]

[tex]F(2\sqrt{3}) - F(0) \approx 1.317[/tex]

The list price on slacks is $22, and the list price on jumpers is $37. If Petit’s Clothing Store orders 30 pairs of slacks and 40 jumpers at a discount rate of 11%, what is the trade discount on the purchase?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the value of decimal equivalents of complements, net decimal equivalent and net price with the help of given data:

List price= $200

Trade discount series= 20/10

Calculate the decimal equivalents of complements using given formula:

Complements of successive discount = 

= 80% / 90%

Hence, decimal equivalent of complements are 80% / 90%.

Answer:

Trade discount = $235.40

Step-by-step explanation:

List price :

Slacks = 22

Jumpers = 37

Total amount before discount = (30 x 22) + ( 40 x 37)

                                              = 660  +  1480

                                              = 2140

Discount rate = 11%

So,

  [tex]Discount \ price = 11 \% \ of \ 2140\\\\Discount \ price = \frac{11}{100} \times 2140 = 235.40[/tex]

The vertices of a trapezoid are located at (1, 2), (3, 1), (3, 5), (1, 4). The trapezoid is translated 4 units to the right. What are the coordinates of the image of the trapezoid?

Answers

Answer:

Suppose that we have a given point (x, y)

If we translate this point N units to the right, then the new coordinates of the point are:

(x + N, y)

Ok, now if we know that the vertices of the trapezoid are:

(1, 2), (3, 1), (3, 5), (1, 4)

And we move the whole figure 4 units to the right, then all the vertices are moved 4 units to the right.

Then the new vertices of the figure will be:

(1 + 4, 2) = (5, 2)

(3 + 4, 1) = (7, 1)

(3 + 4, 5) = (7, 5)

(1 + 4, 4) = (5, 4)

Then the coordinates of the image of the trapezoid (of the new vertices) are:

(5, 2),  (7, 1), (7, 5),  (5, 4)

the temperature of a cup of coffee obeys newton's law of cooling. The initial temperature of the coffee is 150F and 1 minute later it is 135F. The temperature of the room is 70F. If T(t) represents the temperature of the coffee at time T the correct differential equation for the temperature for this condition is

Answers

Answer:

Newton's law of cooling says that:

T(t) = Tₐ + (T₀ - Tₐ)*e^(k*t)

or:

[tex]\frac{dT}{dt} = -k*(T - T_a)[/tex]

in the differential form.

where:

T is the temperature as a function of time

Tₐ  is the ambient temperature, in this case, 70F

T₀ is the initial temperature of the object, in this case, 150F

k is a constant, and we want to find the value of k.

Then our equation is:

T = 70F + (150F - 70F)*e^(k*t)

Now we also know that after a minute, or 60 seconds, the temperature was 135F

then:

135F = 70F + (150F - 70F)*e^(k*60s)

We can solve this for k:

135F = 70F + 80F*e^(k*60s)

135F - 70F = 80F*e^(k*60s)

65F =  80F*e^(k*60s)

(65/80) = e^(k*60s)

Now we can apply the Ln(x) function to both sides to get:

Ln(65/80) = Ln(e^(k*60s))

Ln(65/80) = k*60s

Ln(65/80)/60s = k = -0.0035 s^-1

Then the differential equation is:

[tex]\frac{dT}{dt} = -0.0035 s^-1*(T - 70F)[/tex]
